Once you move your freshly self-custodied #bitcoin away from its first home outside of the exchange to the next wallet address, it is no longer KYC bitcoin. Sure it tracks back to you, but that new wallet address could belong to anyone. There is no way to prove that you control those sats anymore. The same is true if you trade bitcoin for Monero. The bitcoin will always trace back to you forever. The difference is that you don’t have any control over how your Monero trading buddy spends your previously KYC’d bitcoin. Why not just spend it yourself? Personally I think the KYC question is a type of FUD that will resolve itself over time. As people begin spending their bitcoin on goods & services.

I don’t know if “private home networks” like Umbrel are private at all. They still don’t offer HTTPS and you can’t use it with VPN unless you do it at the router level. I do think an open source alternative to Tailscale is an improvement, but we need an alternative to Umbrel other than Start9.

Not sure if they are, but you’re right to question it. If so, then we won’t know which government agency is collecting our data through VPN, but we know exactly which ISP is doing it when we don’t use VPN.

If you are starting from scratch I would avoid Start9. It uses an old Chinese distro of Linux which doesn’t sit right with me. (See screenshot). Also, Start9 claims you can download to your device for free, but in practice it does not work. They really expect you to buy their pre-built models. Umbrel is tried and true. I recommend flashing UmbrelOS on a Raspberry Pi model 5 with 8GB - 16GB RAM and an SSD with at least 2TB memory to make it future proof.

I have heard the Bitaxe that solo mined a block to Public-Pool always ran at a low difficulty right up until the actual block it mined then the difficulty level spiked when it hit a block. Not sure how Bitaxe measures difficulty since it’s just hashing random numbers rather than doing complex math equations that would suggest a level of difficulty.

Difficulty level measures how hard it is to solve complex mathematical equations to mine new blocks, which can technically be done with pencil and paper. It is faster even for computers to just brute force random numbers and try to guess the correct answer rather than actually solving the problem. So this is why the hashrate is what matters most. At least that is my understanding of it.
